In order to get the new daily quest (the one located outside the kraken mines), I have to:

1) go to paradise pier
2) hoof it to the bottom of the town and walk onto the dragon jewel
3) talk to the captain
4) select "explore" from the choices he gives you
5) then go to the mines
6) then run outside the mines to get quest

Why is this so complicated? I think we should be able to access all the areas available to us from the world map. In fact, I think paradise pier is unnecessary. Why not do away with it and have the dragon jewel be the town? There's nothing at the pier anyway except for 2 daily quests (nothing that can't be moved to the boat). Then u could have a gang plank from the boat that went to the mines if u really wanted to. You can also do away with that whole "outside the mine" part. I don't see why the quest lady can't be inside the mine where everyone can find her.

Simpler is always better. Especially in a casual mmo.
